For over a decade, Athens Farmers Market has been more than just a place to buy fresh produce; it’s been the heartbeat of our community. Week after week, neighbors gather under the trees, children dance to live music, chefs shake hands with farmers, and families fill their bags with food grown just down the road. We’ve created a space where everyone is welcome, where food is local, seasonal, and accessible, and where relationships, not transactions, are at the center of it all.
But with rising costs, reduced grant funding, and the uncertainty of the economy at the moment, we’re facing real challenges in keeping this work going. Programs like Live Music, Kids Booth Activities, Free Fitness Classes, FARM Rx and SNAP doubling depend on your support to continue making fresh, local food accessible to all. This work is only possible because of the generosity and belief of people like you. If Athens Farmers Market has ever fed your family, introduced you to a favorite farmer, or brought you joy on a Saturday morning, now is the time to give back.
